Tried this over my lunch break, been out of pocket a while taking care of my wife and baby.
26-9-22 for a score of 57[/quote]
Nice! Solid #'s dude[/quote]
Ya, good score! I’ll give this a shot on my bench day at the end of the week.
Lol, at what my score will be though…[/quote]
Probably should have added BW in that post about score. Weighed 208, the handful of 2.5’s were nowhere to be found so I went with 205 on bench.
I actually think doing so many pushups to pass the time while I was at the hospital really helped with this challenge. Now if I could just work on my pullup strength.

What’d you get gregron? I need something to shoot for.[/quote]
Was thinking about trying this at the end of my upper workout today as a finisher. Fresh I can hit the bench for 20-ish, pullups for low 30’s and dips around 50, but I imagine I’ll lose at least a third from fatigue. I’ll post back with results.

I got 59 after my chest workout wich included 305x8 as my top set and then twoax rep sets of 225 where I got 18 and 14 reps. Then at my 215 I only got 20
All reps were clean though. No “NFL Combine half rep bouncers” or kipping 3/4 pull ups or 1/4 dips. Reps were legit.
I’m not sure what I can get fresh but I’ll be trying it again in 2 more weeks. We are doing it as a once a month gauge of progress type of deal

Oh my upper body was a lot fresher than yours then when I did this; I just did them after my squat volume. Appparently I’m also 25lbs lighter than you, which is depressing…
A measly 190lb bodyweight (I am leanish tho for once)
Bench - 28
Pullups - 20
Dips - 34
82
You know what is really cool about this, I have a bigger pump in my chest and arms just from that than I’ve gotten in a long ass time from workouts that took 10x as long lol.

I always pictured you being much heavier than that. Nice job!

Those are some pretty impressive numbers y’all. I also thought Fry was heavier than 190. I completely pussed out 'cause I didn’t want to come back and post shitty numbers up here after I did upper…will get done, and at least now I have something to shoot for.

Yeah I picture myself heavier than that too…
It’s because I’m top heavy. A lot of guys who see me at the gym think I’m 220 at first, but then I have to explain to them that I have little chickenshit legs. For guys like me and Johnny Bravo the struggle is real.

Anyway, Ecchastang, when are you doing it? You should obliterate this one.[/quote]
Probably tomorrow night after my main bench workout.

I thought about videoing it, but I was too lazy to get each place set up with something that could hold my phone at the right angle to self film beforehand. I may do it again with video though just to keep us honest with our reps.
I did it after doing my 5+ set on bench at 305x6, and granted I hadn’t done a bench set over 8 in a few months, but I just died on the dips. My triceps literally locked up. Strangely, about 6 minutes afterwards, I hit 20 dips no problem, but I couldn’t believe how pumped I was after bench and pullups. But I measured my arms after getting home, and hit my biggest measurements ever, 15 3/8 left, and 15 1/4 right.
Holy hell… Yall are giving me a few feelings of inadequacy right now haha. My shoulders still haven’t totally recovered after dive-bombing those last few reps of dips trying to get as much as I could out of the bounce. I really really need to get my pullups up. I am losing ground on yall big time there. I think part of my problem is that I do them so slow because I have to concentrate to keep a natural kip from occurring.
Missed this. I like it. How many was that by the way?[/quote]
I think it was 52 or 53, but I forgot the squat a couple of times so like 50 (I didn’t recount though). The soreness in my quads is finally starting to go away…
